Damage control priority?

desirableroasted · 08-11-10, 07:48 AM

As a veteran skipper, I should know this. And I cannot find the answer in the forums.

1) What do the little symbols in damaged compartments mean? What relation do they have to the damage info being printed out (i.e., damage recovery in 00.01 while the number under the icon could be completely different).

2) How do you prioritize where to send the DC crew? All things being equal, I restore (if damaged) a) electric propulsion, b) diesel propulsion, then whatever else, but I would really like to know how to put buoyancy first.

Most of the time, if I last 3-4 minutes of gametime damage, I muddle through. But I rarely do so efficiently, and I am sure I am making wrong choices.

All advice gratefully accepted!
